I’m a wife, mother, grandmother, and caregiver to my beautiful mom. For over 26 years, I’ve dedicated my career to helping clients feel confident and beautiful on the outside. Now, I’m passionate about helping people feel just as good on the inside.

Through my own life experiences and challenges, I’ve learned how to make positive changes despite the obstacles. If only I knew then what I know now! I’d love to help you incorporate nourishing plant-based foods into your life, as they’ve completely transformed mine. I’ve gained more energy, achieved weight loss, and improved my overall health.

It would be an honor to be your coach and support you on your wellness journey.

My plant-based journey started over a decade ago when an initial mammogram indicated a heightened risk for breast cancer. Research into the lifestyle changes I could make to reduce my cancer risk led me to a plant-based diet. I have since developed a passion for the evidence-based science behind a whole-food plant-based diet for optimum health. I am certified in plant-based nutrition through the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies at eCornell and earned my initial health coach certification through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN). I have also completed the Lifestyle Medicine for Coaches training, offered jointly by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and Wellcoaches, and earned an additional certification in Plant-based Coaching through the Food Revolution Network. I am currently preparing for the National Board of Health and Wellness Coaches Certification Exam. As a complement to my work as a health coach, I am a certified yoga instructor, Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist, and Jazzercise instructor, passionate about lifelong fitness, movement, and mindfulness. I am also an educator with over 25 years of experience teaching college students and other adults.

As a health coach, I use my wide range of knowledge and life experiences to work with you to co-create completely personalized action steps based on your wellness goals. Our work together will help you move toward your ideal vision of health within your unique body, lifestyle, preferences, and resources.

I have committed my entire professional career, spanning 30+ years, to providing nutritional guidance for a multitude of individuals on their quest to disease management, prevention and wellness. As a passionate Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Plant Based Coach, I seek to empower my clients with the knowledge and skills needed to embrace a healthier lifestyle through the power of fresh wholesome foods.
Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege to work with individuals in clinical, wellness, and mental health settings. Many of these individuals were taking an exorbitant amount of medications to manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. As a result of simple dietary changes to include wholesome plant foods, many were able to eliminate medications for these conditions. In fact, one individual lost over 100 pounds, which actually disqualified him from weight loss surgery.

My hope is that through engagement, and empowerment, I can assist individuals to incorporate principles of a whole food plant-based lifestyle to restore health and prevent the onset of chronic diet-related conditions.

I’ve been diagnosed with stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer and have been working with an integrative oncologist whom recommended going vegan or vegetarian. When I asked if there was any support the response was just google some recipes. This didn’t sit well with me and I dove headfirst to learn everything I can about whole food plant based diets and how to adapt this lifestyle in a way that works for me.

I now have no evidence of disease in my body and have learned to recognize how I feel in my body when adhering to a whole food plant based diet and when I have veered off of the diet. I’m on a mission to support others to incorporate Whole Foods into their diet creating a lifestyle that fits their needs. I’d love to meet you and help you create a Whole Foods Plant Based Lifestyle so you can have vitality!

I am originally from Georgia. I have lived on the California side of Lake Tahoe for 40 years. I love being outdoors and hiking.

I have followed a plant based diet for 2 years. I first realized the importance of a plant based diet by watching the Food Revolution Network Summit 3 years ago. I recently graduated from the Food Revolution Network’s Plant Based Coaching Certification course.

Since getting off of processed foods and eating plant based, I am enjoying more energy and no longer having achy joints. I have also lost weight and kept it off for the first time in my life. I am passionate about helping other people transition to a plant based diet. It gives me great joy to see others enjoying their new found health and well being.

I would love to help you on your journey to better health!

Beth has experienced her own transformation through plant-based eating. In December, 2017, she had to leave her job of 30 years as a music educator due to her own battles with pain and weight issues. She encountered challenges in carrying out basic activities such as going up stairs or participating in meetings. She could no longer even imagine setting up the stage for my middle school orchestra!
Her journey from pain to relief began in 2018 after watching the movie, “Forks Over Knives”. Having recently completing the research for her EdD dissertation, she gained a greater understanding and admiration for the research and outcomes showcased in this film. It was truly impressive to see the profound influence of dietary changes on people’s lives, which was both evident and inspiring!

Since then, she has gained valuable knowledge and skills. She recently achieved Root-Cause Health Coach certification from Lifestyle Prescriptions University, following previous certifications in Plant-based Coaching from the Food Revolution Network, and Whole Foods Plant-based Nutrition from Cornell University. Through this journey, she has shed 50 pounds and maintained the weight loss, was able to discontinue BP medication after 22 years, and at the age of 68, even jogged the whole way to the end of her first-ever 5K race! She is now enthusiastic about assisting others in their health endeavors, supporting them through each step of the way!

My specialty is helping people identify their health and lifestyle goals and taking the small steps that lead to transformative change and living their dream. I help people claim ownership of their daily habits so they feel better physically and emotionally. This includes action planning, kitchen organization, and navigating grocery stores, restaurants and other social situations. I understand the value of finding one’s inner strengths, nurturing them and leaning on them to grow in the direction you want. My plant-based journey kicked into high gear about 20 years ago when I participated in an intensive plant-based program. I was raising children, commuting a long way to work, and eating the standard American diet, resulting in being fatigued, overweight and not happy with my health status. Today I am 50 pounds lighter, have improved my biometrics, and have more energy than I did years ago. I am skilled at helping people find their inner strengths and motivations, and nurturing them to achieve more than was imagined.

My journey started back in 2017 when my family of five watched the documentaries, What the Health, Forks Over Knives, and Plant Pure Nation. What followed was a complete transition to a plant-based life for all of us. We took this one step at a time, cutting out animal products and then working to eliminate processed junk foods while at the same time increasing our daily consumption of a variety of plants. We were encouraged along the way by the myriad of health benefits we quickly noticed. Feeling so good and watching my family experience these benefits motivated me to dive into learning all I could about the science and research behind plant-based nutrition. From this deep dive and from years of trial and error, I figured out how to make this work for my entire family in our real, day-to-day lives, without giving up social events, going out to eat, traveling, and hosting family and friends.

Whether you’re plant-curious, fully plant-based, or somewhere in-between, I have been there and would love to help you learn how to easily, sustainably, and joyfully thrive while eating more plants!
